Rather u Big Contract.

"What is this mans name?" inquired a
rich railroad magnate of baggage master,
as they stood over the inanimate form of q
brave engineer who had saved the train at
the expense of both his legs.
"John Smith, sir, replied the baggage
smasher.
"Thank you. He has performed noble
action, and will remember him."
"ltather big contract" dryly remarked
q bystander.

For twenty years l.. p. Rider, oi
Pittsburg, has been making expert
ments with the object Of increae ing
the speed OF vessels and lessening
their draught by change in the for
nation of the hull. Al last he has
constructed boat with which he will
make test as soon as the river is free
from ice. Engineers pronounce his
theory a correct one. The boat
which is sc feet long, is known as the
"concaye bottom" the hull being
built in q right and left-hand splrs
form from the bow To the middle Sec
ton.
The conformation of the hull Is such
as to displace the water in a manner
closely approximating to the "wave.
line" theory. beginning at the cut
water. The displacement is accom-.
plished gradually until the centre Of
the boat is reached, when the reverse
action of displacement begins. The
concave begins where the convex ends
The greater the speed the greater the
lifting power, the boat rising on the
water and consequently moving with
greater speed without any increase in
power.

Control.
Many nersons think that in order

Many persons think that in order TO
enjoy perfect liberty it is necessary
only to be free from the control of other
people. If no one exacts obedien e,regu-
lates their lives, or interferes with
their will, they triumphantly call
themselves free. Yet there is bond
age which is not the less slsvish be-
cause they forge the chains themsel-
yes. They are tyrants that hold men
in unflinching servitude, and burdens
under which they bend without think
ing il possible to rebel against the one,
or to cast off the other.

hope was vain. Daniel Webster's son,
Fletcher, was quiet, somewhat schol-
arly gentleman, without single sug-
gestion of the possession Of his fathers
great ability. lie was gallant officer
during the war, and was killed 10 ser
vice, Not one, we believe it is safe to
say, of the men who so ably made his
tory for lis in tAe past, lett sons who
took up the work their fathers left OIL,
and carried it on with signal ability.
The names we now bear and have
heard for generation are new names.
None OF them suggest the giants of
old. The brilliant Tom Ewirg's son
is now a quiet lawyer in New York.
Tom Benton's grandsons are youths of
character but of no conspicuous abil
ity. Clayton, Dallas, X. M. Johnson,
Wright and Marcy, the Cllntons, these
and many others have bequeathed
none of their ability.
Mr.. Carlisle has two sons who are
practicing law in the growing town of
Wichita, Kan. One OF them Is thought
TO give promise of becoming a great
lawyer. Mr.. Blaine has three sons.
One Ia in the railway business in Chi
cago; one, Walker. has been able to
adopt the habits and life of people who
move in good society with distinguish
ed success, but not as yet has he de-
veloped any OF the wonderfully mag
netic and stirring qualities that have
made his father pre-emincnt. Another,
young Jim, as he IS called, is thought
TO have some Of Mr.. Blaine's ability,
though his exuherant youthful spirits
have not permitted him to make much
manifestation of it, if 1t be SO.
That eccentric but gifted warrior,
Gen. Sherman, had looked for career
for his son which in other fields might
equal his own, but the young man mas
given himself to the life of priest in
the Church of Rome. John Sher-
man has no children. Through the
Ewings the Shermans and Blaines are
related, so that it is likely that to the
Ewing blood these able men can in Il
manner ascribe their gifts. Senator
Bayard will probably be the last of his
family to hold conspicuous public
office, at least in consecutive line. His
son is an amiable, conscientious young
man, but with no taste for those pur-
suits which made his father, uncle
and grandfather famous.
SONS OF SENATOR'S.
The late Gov. Hubbard of Conncc-
ticut, though not we'll known outside
the State except to the bar of the
country, was regarded as one of the
most brilliant minds that State has
ever produced of recent years. He
was very able lawyer and most de-
lightfui orator His son inherits
neither these tastes nor capacities. He
is brisk little business man and buys
and sells stock on Change. Hawley,
Edmunds, Sherman, Conkling, now
or lately of the Senate, have not sons.
Conkling unquestionably inherits some
of his gifts. His father, Judge Conk-
